New Portals Provide Consumers and Agents in Bahrain and Jordan a User-Friendly and Technologically Advanced Property Search Experience

Dubai, United Arab Emirates| JustProperty.com, a leading online U.A.E. property portal and a member of JRD Group, announced the launch of two new bi-lingual portals this month: in Bahrain (www.justproperty.bh) and Jordan (www.justproperty.jo).

A forerunner among Middle East real estate portals, JustProperty.com acheived an impressive growth trajectory over the last six months, making its debut in Qatar and Saudi Arabia. The Group's accelerated expansion plan this year remains on-track as the portal aims to increase its presence in key growth markets in the region.

"The objective of our entry into Bahrain and Jordan is two-fold. We are committed to offering advanced and contemporary property search tools to property seekers, sellers and investors in these countries; ultimately with the long-term view of contributing to the growth and evolution of local property markets," commented Alex Nicholas, CEO and Founding Partner of JRD Group.

He added: "We are passionate about the people we serve and these new portals will bring us closer to our end-users, agencies and developers in Bahrain and Jordan. Our local presence is key to keeping us in tune with user needs so that we can continuously innovate new ways for people to effectively find that perfect home or office."

According to Nicholas, technology is the backbone across all the Group's portals and is a defining factor when it comes to user experience: "Prospective tenants and investors uniformly find our property listings authentic and rich-in-detail. That's because we encourage and ensure that real estate professionals who use our proprietary software PropSpace only publish listings that meet our rigorous quality standards."

In Nicholas' view, these countries offer compelling growth prospects and lack a distinct leader in terms of the online property search market, making them attractive locations to launch in. According to Nicholas, both portals have received an excellent response since going live: "We've received an overwhelming response from the community and we're looking forward to building on this momentum over the course of this year." 

In the coming months, JRD Group aims to launch several more property portals across the MENA region, leveraging its pioneering and technologically advanced offering to new markets. "Our track record in the Middle East provides a compelling proposition for property seekers and professionals. We're looking forward to setting the bar for property search in the region," concluded Nicholas.
